TV queen Oprah Winfrey took to the sky on Saturday morning over Wanaka, sharing her experience with her 8.3 million social media followers.
Winfrey posted snippets of her flight over Lake Hawea and cloud covered mountain peaks on Instagram.
"It's a gorgeous day New Zealand, I love you," she shouts.
Winfrey is in New Zealand for the filming of the $143 million Disney movie A Wrinkle in Time with Reese Witherspoon.
The billionaire and the film's director, Ava DuVernay, shared the flight which shows them passing over lakes and snow covered peaks of the Southern Alps.
"Amazing, I love it, that's where we shot," Winfrey says over the engine.
The 63-year-old had previously written about the film's stunning locations earlier, posting a photo that received 193,000 likes and 2545 comments.
Winfrey and Kaling are taking every opportunity to showcase the country's natural beauty. The actors and crew involved in the film are in New Zealand for two weeks to shoot scenes in the Southern Alps.
The crew are shooting at Hunter Valley Station near Lake Hawea, with cast and crew treated to a traditional Maori powhiri and karakia on Tuesday.
